LIGHT features 2 long continuous tracks paced at 60 beats per minute (resting heart rate). This constant, hypnotic tempo easily and naturally soothes your mind and nervous system, bringing you into deep peace. The main mantra featured in this CD is the Gayatri Mantra. It is a prayer of praise that awakens our vital energies and gives liberation from suffering. Just as the sun shines its nourishing light upon us, so too does this mantra shine within to bring greater wisdom and mental clarity to our everyday lives. When listening to or singing along with this CD, the soothing ancient sounds activate your divine inner light, opening your heart to receive.
Track 1 ‘Song For Surya’ features the soothing ancient sounds of the Gayatri Mantra. The Gayatri Mantra has been sung by the sages of India for thousands of years and is known for its power to awaken us and bring liberation from suffering. In Sanskrit Gaya means vital energies and trayate means to preserve, protect and liberate. This mantra is a heartfelt appeal to the supreme being for enlightenment. It’s a prayer that says “May the warmth and loving light inspire and guide our minds and open our hearts” ‘Song of Light’ also sings the names of Surya Narayana (The Sun God). The energy of the sun is deeply nourishing and brings wisdom, strength and vitality to all life. ‘Song of Light’ calls in the loving power of Surya and Gayatri with bija (seed) mantras Om Bhur Buvah Swaha.
Track 2 Inner Light Meditation features 108 repetitions of the bija mantra Om Bhur Buvah Swaha. A bija mantra is a seed syllable that contains a potent essence of spiritual energy. This seed is planted in our being when chanting or listening with loving attention, awakening us to receive pure divine light.
Everything I create honours the ancient Indian tradition of mantra, yoga and Ayurveda. As a qualified Ayurvedic Practitioner, yogi and sacred music artist, I am deeply inspired by this path because it has healed me of chronic fatigue, chronic pain, anxiety and depression. My devotion brings a richness and spiritual energy to my music, teaching, cooking and Ayurvedic therapies to help you nurture your divine beautiful self.
As food nourishes your body, sacred sound feeds your soul. For thousands of years the sages of ancient India have known of the spiritual science of sound, mantra, yoga and Ayurveda for healing the mind and body and have passed on this wisdom to us in an unbroken lineage of the Vedic tradition.
The repetition of Sanskrit mantras and simple, yet inspired melodies invoke powerful healing vibrations that restore peace, harmony and vitality to our inner being and outer worlds, awakening us to the great spirit of love that is our true nature.

Love It! Beautiful, spiritual and tranquil music to practice yoga to or just chill out.
I feel like my entire being received the most phenomenal tune up. It was a full body experience to meditate, listen and chant with Jo.
I love the way Jo explains of the science and health benefits behind Ayurvedic nutrition. And her recipes are delicious!

I'm an award winning songwriter, professional musician, teacher and Ayurvedic Practitioner.
I've been singing all my life, but my true musical heart was untouched until I went to India. I fell in love with the healing sounds, exotic instruments and classical ragas that touched my heart and inspired me to record a range of albums for yoga and meditation.
While in India, I also discovered the healing science of Ayurveda and later studied with Dr. S. Ajit, AIAS. This set me on the path to healing myself of chronic fatigue, chronic pain, anxiety and depression.
I've recorded ten albums under my brand Cafe Mantra, authored my first Ayurvedic cookbook and teach harmonium, chanting and Indian classical singing.
I travel Australia and abroad to yoga festivals, yoga retreats and conscious music events to share the sound of spirit and the sacred science of mantra and Ayurveda. When I'm not travelling, I teach and consult at my home in West Haven, Mid North Coast NSW.
